Completing a step records the materials it used
When you complete a step that uses materials, Mark used now takes them from the same place the order's Materials & Production tab does: the staging spot they were picked to, the material's default location, or the one location that holds it. If the usage still can't be recorded, the window stays open and says why, and the step shows Usage not recorded until someone records it.
On Materials & Production, Allocate updates the Allocated column straight away and lists any materials the order is now short on. A material that is only partly placed on stages shows the rest as its own order-level row, so the planned figures add up. Archiving an order updates reserved and available figures on Parts right away.
An order's Stage locations tab and a route's Locations tab now list stages in route order, the same order as the order's Completion tab.
On Materials & Production, selecting several materials and choosing Add to pick list adds all of them. On a pick list, when a pick can't be recorded, the message says what went wrong and the quantity you typed stays in place so you can try again.
